It's worth emphasizing that an indirect part of the proposal in the draft is 
that RPF filters may be augmented from secondary sources.

The fact we've chosen BGP routes that aren't necessarily active in forwarding 
is one good example of it.

The main operational headache of any secondary seeding of the filters though is 
the maintenance of their source.  Both BGP and RPKI provide a distributed way 
such things can be maintained.

Observant and old-enough readers will also be reminded of the "issues" that AOL 
used to have where your routes weren't used if they weren't properly 
registered.
